Sing One For the Cowboy is an album by the Sons of the San Joaquin, released in 2000. [4] The band won the Western Heritage Award for the album's title track. [5]
Country Standard Time wrote: "References to the 'Red Man' aside, the group serves up a tasty slice of the Gene Autry-esque West: no bloody gunfights, no syphilitic hookers, just a longing for the trail and a longing to go home and lots of good harmonizing in between." [6] The Gazette wrote that "these Sons offer a romanticized view of cowboy life wrapped up in tight harmonies and melodies that can be sweet on one song and exciting on the next." [7]
All tracks are written by Jack Hannah, except where noted.

Live at Folsom Field, Boulder, Colorado is the fourth live album released by the Dave Matthews Band. It was recorded in Boulder, Colorado at Folsom Field, the football stadium of the University of Colorado Boulder on July 11, 2001. It was released on the RCA Records music label on November 5, 2002 on Compact Disc, VHS, and DVD. The DVD was directed by Fenton Williams of Filament Productions. In promotional material prior to the release, the album was originally titled Open up the Curtains, a reference to the song "I Did It."
The Mystery of Life is the 77th album by country singer Johnny Cash, released in 1991, and his last for Mercury Records. The songs featured are culled from both recent sessions and from leftovers from Cash's first Mercury session in 1986 for the album Johnny Cash is Coming to Town.
The Sons of the San Joaquin is an American Western family band. Jack and Joe Hannah are brothers, while third member Lon Hannah is Joe's son. They began performing together in 1987 at a birthday party for Lon's grandfather. They have been credited with "rich durability of the traditional Western music they present, as well as the outstanding original cowboy songs" and being reminiscent of the Sons of the Pioneers. Roy Rogers called them "the only singing group alive who I feel sound like the original Sons of the Pioneers." They have over a dozen albums, including a gospel album and a greatest hits album.
Sagebrush Symphony is the nineteenth album by American singer-songwriter Michael Martin Murphey, his second live album since his 1979 live/studio album Peaks, Valleys, Honkytonks and Alleys, and his first album with a symphony orchestra. Recorded live with the San Antonio Symphony Orchestra, this ambitious album, which presents cowboy songs and poems in a symphonic setting, contains a selection of Murphey's most popular songs, as well as traditional cowboy music. Murphey turns in "an impassioned performance" and the inclusion of guest artists Sons of the San Joaquin, Ric Orozco, Herb Jeffries, and Robert Mirabal "adds to the musical diversity and richness of the album."
Way Out Yonder is the twelfth album released by the Sons of the San Joaquin. It was made available through their website in October 2005, and saw a worldwide release in January of the following year.
From Whence Came the Cowboy is the fifth album from the Sons of the San Joaquin and the third and final for the Warner Western label. It is the first to feature mostly original songs instead of relying on Sons of the Pioneers songs as they had for their prior releases.

Christmas is the seventh album released by the Sons of the San Joaquin. It marks the first independently produced and released Sons recording since 1991's Bound for the Rio Grande.

Bound For the Rio Grande is the second Sons of the San Joaquin album. It was independently produced and distributed and contains songs written by or notably recorded by the Sons of the Pioneers.
Great American Cowboy is the first album by the Western music band Sons of the San Joaquin, released in 1990.

For the Young, and the Young At Heart is the eleventh Sons of the San Joaquin album. It was the first to be independently produced and distributed since 1998's Christmas.
